Dayton Audio PMPC-3.3 3.3uF 250V Precision Audio Capacitor

Dayton Audio is once again leading the charge at bringing high quality, high value products to the speaker building community. Their new line of 1% tolerance capacitors gives you the ability to construct high-precision crossovers, which can eliminate "stereo wandering" and solidify the imaging and soundstage of your speaker systems. Commercial manufacturers know of this problem and buy thousands of capacitors so they can hand-match them for their products-- now you can effectively do the same, because every capacitor is matched! These capacitors share the same excellent build quality, long-term reliability, and sonic clarity of the standard Dayton Audio metallized polypropylene capacitors. Well-known in the industry as the brand of choice for use in loudspeaker crossovers, they offer the performance of boutique capacitors at a fraction of the price. Let the excellent reputation of Dayton Audio and their Precision Capacitors help you build the best speakers that you possibly can.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Tommy B from Good price for qualityYes, there are better out there for more than twice, sometimes much more. Whether in use you can tell is real debateable. Good selection at good price.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Allen Evans - 18772 from Caps Can Make Music Bright and AliveToo many times, people are short-sheeted in the speakers they buy. Open your speakers and look inside, and if you do not see caps like these,you have been cheated. Change those caps out and once and for all hear those speakers you bought as the engineer actually intended them to sound like.

Rated 5 out of 5 by bilavideo - 14261 from Take That, Denmark!Everybody knows the Danes have the world's best caps, but they don't exactly give them away. I wanted to replace my cheap, generic, crossovers with good coils and polypropylene caps. After noting the low price of Dayton's standard polypropylene caps, I thought I could afford to splurge a little. But at $3.34/cap, Dayton's PMPCs don't feel like a luxury. I almost went with the Danes, anyway, but I'm glad I gave Dayton a chance. This is an exceptional product for the price. Auricap is five times more expensive; Audiocap is six. The PMPC is twice the price of Dayton's regular polypropylenes but we're talking about the difference between $1.69 and $3.34. Those who demand only the very best may still want the Audiocap. But at one-sixth the price, Dayton provides a top-quality product that brought real life out of my system. To repeat a time-worn phrase, why pay more?
